Poem Artwork

It’s his fifth time at the plate
He talks with a grizzled grin
There’s more waddle in his caudle
So where do we begin?

He’s Porky Pig not Mr. Big
The epitome of all things flubbery
And when he speaks his swarthy cheeks
Blow bellicosely blubbery.

He gives everything he owns his name
He builds castles to the skies
Then tells us that he’s one rich dude
Just wants to claim his prize.

The American Dream was meant for him
The Presidency makes him smile
But the White House doesn’t fit his charm
The Trump House is more his style.

He’s a natural winner a bon vivant
He makes a profit every time
He wheels and deals till he’s bankrupt
Still he never loses a dime.

He is The Donald the one and only
And of course he makes you nervous
He’s got the highest IQ that ever was
'Cause he owns the testing service.

You can’t deflate him you can’t debate him
He’ll beat you every time
He’s got a slippery silver tongue
Tho’ more ridiculous than sublime.

All the world’s his stage he struts his stuff
Across its creaky floor
Full of sound and fury he blathers on
And then is heard lots more.

Five times up and five times out
It never makes him tired
He thinks we love him when we say
Get lost Donald—you’re fired!

...who better if not you Edward, would be able to look at the presidential race...2016 presidential election...the greatest show on Earth...with options...when one can "win" it on merit or buy it...blowing few $$ to butter up the voters...when "voting" is an illusion and the only choice... that comb-over style replacing the Caesar-cut...or choice between selected few political dynasties...of apparent nepotism or...tolerated by the rest of the nation...celebrity's circus performance...scandals...conflicts....Your poems' witty use of the phrase "you're fired" and one-liner zingers...do an exquisite job asking...is it real or just a ride!?...and a sad remainder...that your great country's founded in opposition to hereditary laws...rules...and obviously...never've been about the "hair-choices"....
Thanks for sharing your verse.

Donald Duck? Perhaps a saying like "That's all folks" would make most of us very happy. Well done!

When I stopped laughing at this superbly well thought out characterization of the Donald, himself, I came to a sobering conclusion:

It takes money to enter the presidential race. And if you look at past history, most of our presidents started out either rich or famous before they ever "threw their hat in the ring." That's why I think it's time that the American people come up with a way to prevent money and fame (movie stars, etc.) from being criteria to be a candidate.

This is a piece I wish I had written and I'm sure glad that you have.

Dead on hilarious. I'd love to know what other countries think of us when someone like Trump enters the political picture, Especially when he makes his entrance coming down an escalator like some god descending into the world of mere mortals, and then says stupid things about other countries. What a way to showcase ones foreign policy.

Thanks for the laughs - comedians think he's their own low trove, but the Donald belongs to all of us 'cause we know he's as much Scrooge as rubber Duck ... did I spell that right? Well done.

Thankfully, the word 'IDIOCY' has more than one meaning - It apparently applies in every sense here.
